Online Events Calendar
One of the (few) bright spots of the pandemic is the number of virtual programs — talks, exhibits, tours, discussions, and more — available online, removing the requirement of in-person attendance. The Jane Austen/Regency world has a growing number of online events of interest to our community. We’ve set up this Online Event Calendar to help you find some of them. Please check the listings and be sure to convert the event times (which are local to the organizers) to your location. To submit an event for the calendar, email news@jasnanorcal.org Note: JASNA regional events are also listed on the organization’s web site: http://jasna.org/conferences-events/

Walking Women: A Conversation with Kerri Andrews
January 11, 2021 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm GMT
In her most recent book, Wanderers: A History of Women Walking, Kerri Andrews provides intimate and incisive portraits of some of the women who have, over the past 300 years, found walking essential to their sense of themselves as women, writers and people, despite social restrictions, assumptions about what women could do, and a failure to value women’s accounts of their walking. In this conversation, followed by a live Q&A, Kerri discusses the impulses behind the book, and some of the remarkable women contained in its pages.
